Any set of old school halogen fog lamps would be superior to laserlight high beams.

Heck a candle flame in a fog lamp socket would cut thru fog better than laserlight high beams.

It's more to do with the placement of the light source than the technology.
it's about the range not just brightness. In the EU they have 2000ft of visibility which is a big deal and would be better when fully enabled here. I've vaguely measure mine at 1200-1400ft or so maybe more based on where I could see and my position then I went to Google maps and measured.
That sounds accurate lol
